Reviews

In a retroactive review of Three Miles Up done in October 2014, the critic Leon Nicholson wrote: "Three Miles Up is more a psychological, ghostlike horror story rather than the blood, guts and gore that modern audiences are so used to. This is a slow, atmospheric burner. Due to this Three Miles Up will not be everyone’s cup of tea. It’s not perfect by any stretch of the imagination but if one can get hold of this episode it is worth a watch."[2] In a retroactive review of The Shadowy Third in September 2016, the reviewer wrote: "The Shadowy Third has a deliciously spooky atmosphere and is genuinely chilling, all the more so for its understated period atmosphere and although you know where the story is going almost from the get go it still has the power to hold your interest."[3] In another retroactive review of Three Miles Up done in March 2017, the critic Jon Dear wrote: "The conclusion when it comes feels sad and inevitable. Yet although this is a story where much is predictable, it’s what it makes you feel that is significant. You care about the brothers and their lives of lost moments and regret. You feel the loneliness of the little boat lost in the directionless waterways and featureless fenland."[4]
